Playwright Daniel Lillford Interview on Art & Fine Living with Jona

Playwright, actor and director Daniel Lillford made a guest appearance on Art & Fine Living with Jona to air March 23^rd and 26^th, 2008. In a lively conversation, the creator of The Mystery of Maddy Heisler, to premiere at the Centaur Theatre in Montreal in late March, spoke candidly about his fascination with the two great wars of the last century, about his own family's strife in the German-occupied Channel Islands and about the making of the mystery which was already nominated for five East Coast awards.

The play is set in rural Nova Scotia during WWII, where a young local man falls in love with an older woman who arrives mysteriously and disappears in the midst of their rapturous love affair. Years later, the young man, now an aging mystery writer, is approached by a young woman carrying a small notebook, the contents of which open an unexpected door to the past.

Art & Fine Living with Jona is produced and hosted by Montrealer Jona Rapoport. The program showcases talents in theatre, music, opera, dance, literature and visual arts, with a delightful mix and commentary on fresh classical and jazz releases. The show airs on Sundays at 7pm and on Wednesdays at 3pm on Radio Shalom 1650 AM, and shows are archived on the host's page at www.radio-shalom.ca for downloading.
